Chapter 11 Chapter Ten: Red Wine Beef VS Braised Crucian Carp
The exquisite knife work really attracted the attention of all the audience. Liu Yunshan once again became the center of the audience, while Qin Yu became a little transparent who was ignored by others.

"Hmph, you want to beat me even if you're so small? Don't even think about it!" Liu Yunshan felt proud in his heart, and the sharp knife flew faster and faster, and he felt a bit supernatural.

Murong Xue and Murong Fu on the opposite side were very nervous, and Murong De was also very nervous standing at the door of the shop. Can Qin Yu really beat Liu Yunshan?What the hell is that big bucket for?Even he is not very clear.

After frying the side dishes, smash the vegetables, beef and bacon into a clean casserole, sprinkle salt and pepper evenly, then wrap it in flour, and walk towards the big iron bucket with the casserole.

"You want to compete with the scene, so I can only accompany you to the end." Qin Yu showed a confident smile, opened the preheated iron bucket, and fixed the casserole on the shaft in the middle to prevent the casserole from rotating.

After exchanging glances with Murong Fu, Qin Yu suddenly opened the mechanism under the iron bucket, and a large amount of transparent juice gushed out. As soon as it met the flame, it immediately burned and jumped several meters high. The momentum was not only amazing, it was simply scary.

The nearby spectators were terribly frightened, and everyone's eyes were snatched away again. Looking at the flames that continued to soar into the sky, they all opened their mouths in horror.

"What, what's the situation?"

"What are you doing with such a big flame? Barbecue or self-immolation?"

"The smell of wine is the taste of white wine, white wine!"

"That's right, that's right, I can smell it too, it's indeed baijiu, and it's very strong baijiu!"

After the astonishment, there were exclamations. Most of the audience could smell the smell of liquor, but they still wondered why they should add liquor if there is no need for charcoal fire?Isn't it superfluous?

Scaring is the most taboo when cooking. Liu Yunshan was so frightened by the flame that he trembled all over. Not only did he cut off the "dragon", but he almost cut it in his hand. The seven orifices were so angry that he had to start carving again. (Gourmet Continent has no taboo against dragons, and it is common to use them for carving)
Indeed, what Qin Yu used was baijiu, and it had a high alcohol content, which was the kind that would burn when exposed to fire.

So why did he use liquor?Because the temperature of the charcoal fire is too high, while the burning temperature of liquor is relatively low. The average temperature of the inner flame is about 400 degrees, and the core temperature can be as low as 250 degrees, which is only slightly higher than the required temperature. Regardless of how high the flame is, That's all a pretense, but in fact the core is inner flames.

Speaking of this, we have to mention the true face of the big iron bucket: the oven!

Gourmet Continental does not have an oven. In order to achieve even heating, Qin Yu made a simple oven by hand, which can be rotated to make the heating even and achieve the purpose of roasting the beef.

Than the visual impact?Who is afraid of whom?You have superb carvings, I have a homemade oven, hum.

Liu Yunshan gritted his teeth angrily, and it was impossible to win back the audience's attention, so he could only suppress his anger and concentrate on cooking, determined to show off in terms of food and taste.

No matter how fancy the process is, it can't be more than an inch of breath, Liu Yunshan thought so, but forgot that he loves fancy things more.

After a few minutes, Qin Yu took out the casserole, added spices, red wine and beef broth, brought it to a boil on high heat, and then stewed it slowly on low heat. In fact, the oven is better than slow stewing, but the time is too long and there is not so much white wine.

As the slow stewing time got longer and longer, the aroma of red wine and beef gradually merged, and the rich aroma permeated the air, piercing into everyone's nostrils like a snake, stimulating everyone's appetite, and the sound of swallowing saliva The sound was full, especially the magistrate Wang, who stared at the wine-red meat in the casserole, kept secretly wiping his saliva, looking like a super foodie.

Qin Yu concentrated on sniffing the overflowing aroma, and added a spoonful of red wine from time to time to make up for the wine taste and prevent the alcohol from evaporating too much, causing the whole dish to lose the wine taste.

The slow-cooking process is very long, and it didn’t take long before Liu Yunshan’s braised crucian carp was ready. When it was steaming out of the pot, the unique aroma of braised braised permeated the air. Crucian carp is very large, and the meat is particularly plump, which is the best among crucian carp.

Put it on a plate and put it on the table, the whole body of the fish gradually emits a white light. The light is divergent at first, and then condenses towards the center, forming a bunch that keeps climbing, one inch, two inches, two and a half inches...

"Food gas! You really deserve to be Chef Liu!"

"It's already two and a half inches, can it reach three inches?" Not only the three judges, but also Liu He, Murong De, Murong Fu, Murong Xue, and the audience all became nervous.

Three inches, you can get rid of the shackles of ordinary products, and be promoted to a high-quality product. Although it is only a small half-inch, it is not easy to achieve, because the state of the chef has ups and downs. can reproduce.

The breath continued to climb, three inches, and the color turned pale yellow!
Before it was over, it climbed another half inch, and the food gas produced by Liu Yunshan's braised crucian carp reached three and a half inches!

"Excellent product, another excellent product has been born."

"Three and a half inches, you should be able to announce the victory in advance, right? Even when the old Murong cooked in person, he only made three inches of food at his peak."

"Poor young man, it's over, tsk tsk." The audience talked a lot, most of them felt that Liu Yunshan had already confirmed the victory in advance, completely lost confidence in Qin Yu, and secretly lamented that the young man was still too young.

Hearing the sound of discussion, Liu He's mustache proudly turned up, and he walked quickly to Liu Yunshan with a smile, bowed to the referee seat and said: "Three adults, please taste, look at Yunshan's The craft can't improve much."

Breathing is sacred, and the expressions of the three referees became solemn. Even County Magistrate Wang, who was coveting red wine, had to hold back the wine bug and turn his attention away.

"Feng Jianyuan please first." The county magistrate's wife made a gesture of invitation, Feng Jianyuan has the highest status, and she dare not snatch it even if she is greedy.

"Then I won't be polite." Feng Jianyuan added a piece of fish wrapped in a chopstick and put it into his mouth, his expression immediately froze, and then slowly softened.

Both Liu Yunshan and Liu He were a little nervous, and Supervisor Feng's evaluation was very important, especially for the chef.

Opening his eyes slowly, Dean Feng Jian exhaled praise: "It melts in the mouth, and the lips and teeth are fragrant. Chef Liu really deserves to be a third-grade gourmet. With this braised crucian carp, I won't be able to taste it for three days."

Liu Yunshan and Liu He were overjoyed, and the audience couldn't help showing surprise. They didn't expect Feng Jianyuan to give such a high evaluation. I didn't know how to eat for three days, which is the affirmation of this braised crucian carp.

Mrs. Wang County Magistrate H couldn't help tasting it one after another. Wang County Magistrate praised: "The fragrance on the lips and teeth is indeed a vision that can only be made by foodies. Such a good product is undoubtedly the best among the braised crucian carp I have eaten. Chief!"

The county magistrate's wife murmured softly, "It's soft and smooth, it melts in your mouth, it's refreshing, the ginger slices are added at just the right time, and there's no fishy smell at all. My God, how can it be so delicate?"

Liu Yunshan took out a small porcelain jar and handed it over: "Because I added this."

The county magistrate's wife took it and smelled it, and said, "Rice vinegar?"

"Ma'am guessed right, it is my special rice vinegar, just a few drops, not only can..." Liu Yunshan was talking, but he heard a chuckle from the side.

"As an opponent, can I have a try?" Everyone suddenly turned their heads, it was Qin Yu.
